Is this the hill you want to die on?

This is the question I ask myself when I find that I am obsessing about a problem or an issue. 90% of the time the answer is no. This helps me to put the problem into perspective and frees up my energy.

But if the answer is yes. Then I attack it with all my resources to get it resolved.

Make a list of your top ten problems and figure out which one, if any, is the hill you want to die on. If you decide on one. Attack!

Just recognizing which one to attack, will excite you and give you the energy to act.
